Washington Nationals’ Adam Eaton: Getting to know the Nats’ new outfielder...

Selected out of Miami University of Ohio in the 19th Round of the 2010 Draft by the Arizona Diamondbacks, Adam Eaton debuted for the D-Backs in 2012.

Eaton, now 28, was subsequently traded to the Chicago White Sox as part of a three-team deal which included the LA Angels in December of 2013.

Over three seasons with the White Sox, the left-handed hitting and throwing outfielder (who played mostly center and right field) put up a combined .290/.362/.422 line with an average of 28 doubles, nine triples, 10 home runs and 16 stolen bases over that stretch.
